Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup Nutella
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat the Milk and Nutella: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the whole milk and Nutella. Stir constantly until the Nutella is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Dissolve the Sugar: Add the granulated sugar and salt to the saucepan. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Combine with Cream: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Chill the Mixture: Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled.
- Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Freeze the Ice Cream: Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container. Press a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
- Serve: Scoop the Nutella Ice Cream into bowls or cones and enjoy. For an extra indulgence, drizzle with additional Nutella or sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts.
